SOME FACTS ABOUT TASERS:

Tasers deliver 50,000 to 75,000 volts. Tasers are conducted energy devices used to incapacitate individuals by delivering an electric shock that disrupts muscle control. They fire two barbed darts connected by wires to deliver the shock, effective at ranges up to 34 feet for law enforcement models. Although marketed as less-lethal, Tasers can cause serious injuries or fatalities, especially in individuals with heart conditions. Reliability varies, with some police departments reporting effectiveness as low as 55%. Tasers can be used in probe mode for incapacitation or drive stun mode for pain compliance.

Tasers fail to subdue individuals approximately 40% of the time, according to investigations and reports from various police departments. This failure rate has been consistent across different cities and models, with some newer models being less effective than older ones. The effectiveness of Tasers can vary due to factors such as the distance between the officer and suspect, clothing thickness, and whether both darts make contact with the target.

The most common description of the pain from a Taser is likened to a severe, full-body muscle cramp or jolt. People often describe it as an intense and sharp pain accompanied by involuntary muscle contractions. The sensation can feel like being hit with electricity throughout the body, causing a temporary loss of muscle control and a feeling of exhaustion once the shock ends.

After being tased, individuals may experience various involuntary reactions. Some people report losing control of their bladder or bowels due to the intense muscle contractions caused by the Taser's electrical shock. Passing out is also a possibility, as Tasers can cause temporary loss of consciousness, seizures, or confusion, although these are less common outcomes.
